Sweet hour of prayer

• • Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, 
  • that calls me from a world of care 
  • and bids me at my Father‟s throne 
  • make all my wants and wishes known! 
  • In seasons of distress and grief 
  • my soul has often found relief, 
  • and oft escaped the tempter‟s snare 
  • by thy return, sweet hour of prayer. 
  • 
    
  • Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, 
  • the joy I feel, the bliss I share, 
  • of those whose anxious spirits burn 
  • with strong desires for thy return! 
  • With such I hasten to the place 
  • where God, my Saviour, shows His face, 
  • and gladly take my station there, 
  • and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer. 
  • 
    
  • Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, 
  • thy wings shall my petition bear 
  • to Him whose truth and faithfulness 
  • engage the waiting soul to bless; 
  • and since He bids me seek His face, 
  • believe His word, and trust His grace, 
  • I‟ll cast on Him my every care, 
  • and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer
